19 There once was a girl known as Little Red Riding Hood, and she always wore a red riding cape wherever she went. One day, she decided to go visit her dear grandmother, who lived deep in the woods. When her mother packed a basket of treats, she warned her not to talk to strangers along the way. As Little Red Riding Hood happily strolled through the woods, she did not notice the sneaky wolf stalking her through the trees. The wolf, pretending to be lost, asked Little Red Riding Hood for directions. The wolf seemed harmless enough, so Little Red Riding Hood not only spoke to him, she also revealed where she was going! The wolf rushed ahead to beat her to her grandmother s house, gaining entry by pretending to be her dear granddaughter. Having locked her grandmother in the closet, the wolf waited for Little Red Riding Hood to arrive. When she knocked on her grandmother s door, she was greeted by a strange voice. Come in dear, said the wolf. As the wolf lay in bed, wearing one of her grandmother s nightgowns, Little Red Riding Hood thought her grandmother sounded and looked strange. What big ears you have, she said. Better to hear you with my dear, replied the wolf. What big eyes you have, said Little Red Riding Hood. Better to see you with my darling, the wolf replied. Your teeth, your teeth are large and as sharp as knives! Little Red Riding Hood exclaimed. The better to eat you with! growled the wolf as he jumped up and lunged at the girl. Luckily Little Red Riding Hood had practiced self-defense, and grabbed with his tail between his legs. Little Red Riding Hood freed her grandmother from the closet, and her grandmother made Little Red Riding Hood promise not to talk to strangers ever again.

21 Little Red Riding Hood Craft By Ellen Dean This watercolor landscape creates the background for the adventures of Little Red Riding Hood by using spooky silhouettes for the characters. The backdrop is a lush landscape of trees and greens that your child can create while practicing her watercolor blending skills. The end result is a painting based on one of our favorite childhood stories, that pops right off the wall! What You Do: What You Need: Watercolor paper Black construction paper Watercolor paints Brushes Pencil Scissors White glue Paper towels 1. Have your child sketch a landscape scene for Little Red Riding Hood onto the watercolor paper. This is only the background, so there are no characters yet. 2. Brush some water over the entire piece of paper and gently blot with a paper towel, to prepare it for painting. 3. Paint in your landscape with bright watercolors, letting them blend together, and let it dry completely. 4. Now your child can sketch the shapes of characters, such as Little Red Riding Hood, The Big Bad Wolf, or Grandma, on the black construction paper, and cut them out. You can use the printable stick puppets as models. 5. Have your child cut out strips of black construction paper to about (0.5x4 ) half an inch by four inches long. 6. Roll a strip of construction paper around a pencil, slide it off and press it to flatten. Tape the edge of the paper strip in place. 7. Have her glue the rolled strip of paper to the center of one of your characters. 8. Then glue the character in position on your drawing. Repeat this for each character!

25 Big Bad Wolf Paper Plate Mask By Ellen Dean Bringing this ferocious fairytale villain to life is simple; all you need is a paper plate, felt, pipe cleaners, paint, ribbon, pom-poms and a little one who loves to act out classic children s tales. Encourage your budding thespian to act out a scene from Little Red Riding Hood or Three Little Pigs with friends, or simply get into character during story time. What You Need: What You Do: Paper Plate Scissors Brown Tempera paint Felt Pom-poms Pipe cleaners Stretchy cord, or ribbon Pencil 1. Have your child cut the paper plate in half and set one half aside for ears, or for another mask. 2. While holding the mask up to your child's face, help to draw their eyes in place by marking the position with a pencil. 3. Pierce a hole in the eyes with a pair of scissors to get your kid started, then let them cut along the pencil line. 4. Together, paint the entire front side of the mask brown with tempera paint. Allow the paint to dry. 5. As the paint dries, show your child how to cut out pieces of felt for the eyebrows of your wolf. 6. Attach pipe cleaner whiskers where the wolf s nose will be. 7. Glue a large pom-pom on top of the whiskers to create a nose. 8. With your assistance, have your child cut out ears from felt or the leftover piece of the paper plate. 9. Staple the ears to the top of the mask. Encourage your budding artist to color them in, or add in another piece of felt to finish the ears. 10. Staple a stretchy cord on both sides of the mask. Or, cut two 8" segments of ribbon and staple one on each side of the mask to tie it securely in place. Other wolfish tales include Peter and the Wolf, Stone Soup, and many of Aesop s Fables.
